GETTING STARTED
- Install Core4Manager
- Download the latest copy of Core4Manager and install it
on your PC.
- Start Core4Manager
- By default, Core4Manager installs it into your start menu.
- Prepare the controller for development
-
- Turn on debug mode.
- Network the controller with your development PC.
- Power up the controller.
- Configure the controller into development mode.
- Install an SDK
- All SDK packages are available on the downloads page.
When starting a new project, we recommend installing the latest SDK for it. If you plan to work on an
existing project given to you by someone else, you might opt for a specific SDK release instead.
To install an SDK, you do not need to unzip the downloaded zip file, Core4Manager
does that for you.
- Create a new project or open an existing project.
- In Core4Manager, chose File/New or File/Open accordingly. Once the project is open, it is
listed in the Core4Manager main window.
Make sure the project is associated with the SDK you want by checking the
project properties.
- Add your controller to the project
- Move your controller into the project by clicking its line in the main window and dragging it onto the
projects line in the main window. If this particular controller hasn't been used with that project before,
Core4Manager will ask your for an IP address to use for this controller.
- Compile and run
- Select the projects tab in the main window and click on Build. The project will be compiled, sent
to the controller over the network and started.
